| Tong Kin-Woon | 唐健垣 |
| Dr. Tong at his studio |
Dr. Tong Kin-Woon1 (Ph.D, Wesleyan University, 1983), my advisor in Hong Kong, is a specialist in a variety of subjects including guqin, Cantonese singing (operatic song, nanyin, and other varieties), Chinese tea and teaware, and Chinese oracle bones. Shang (Dynasty) Musical Instruments, his dissertation at Wesleyan University for his PhD in Ethnomusicology was published in the journal Asian Music, Volumes XIV-2, XV-1 and XV-2 (1983/4). His expertise in classical Chinese and his general knowledge were essential to many of the translations on this website.
Dr. Tong divides his time between his apartments in Hong Kong and Shenzhen, teaching qin and other subjects. He has new and old qins for sale at his residence in Hong Kong:2
Dr. Tong and his students often perform in Hong Kong.
